WARNING
•Do not leave children or adults who would
normally require the support of others alone
in your vehicle. Pets should also not be left
alone. They could accidentally injure them-
selves or others through inadvertent opera-
tion of the vehicle. Also, on hot, sunny days,
temperatures in a closed vehicle could quickly
become high enough to cause severe or pos-
sibly fatal injuries to people or animals.
•To prevent luggage or packages from sliding
forward during braking, do not stack anything
in the cargo area higher than the seatbacks.
•Secure all cargo with ropes or straps to pre-
vent it from sliding or shifting.
•Failure to follow proper seating instructions
see “Seats” in the “1. Safety — seats, seat
belts and supplemental restraint system” sec-
tion, could result in serious personal injury in
an accident or sudden stop.
EXHAUST GAS (Carbon Monoxide)
WARNING
•Do not breathe exhaust gases; they contain
colourless and odourless carbon monoxide.
Carbon monoxide is a dangerous gas and can
cause unconsciousness or death.
•If you suspect that exhaust fumes are enter-
ing the vehicle, drive with all windows fully
open and have the vehicle inspected immedi-
ately.
•Do not run the engine in closed spaces, such
as a garage, for any longer than is absolutely
necessary.
•Do not park the vehicle with the engine run-
ning for any extended length of time.
•Keep the back door closed while driving, oth-
erwise exhaust gases could be drawn into the
passenger compartment. If you must drive in
this way for some reason, take the following
steps:
1) Open all the windows.
2) Manual air conditioner equipped models:
Move the air intake lever to the
posi-
tion.
Automatic air conditioner equipped mod-
els: Switch on the outside air mode.
3) Set the fan speed control to the maximum
position to circulate the air.
•If electrical wiring or other cable connections
must pass to a trailer through the seal of the
body, follow the manufacturer’s recommen-
dations to prevent carbon monoxide entry into
the vehicle.
•When a vehicle has been stopped in an open
area with its engine running for any significant
length of time, turn the fan on to force outside
air into the vehicle.
•The exhaust system and body should be in-
spected by a NISSAN dealer or qualified work-
shop whenever:
– the vehicle is raised for service.
– you suspect that exhaust fumes are enter-
ing into the passenger compartment.
– you notice a change in the sound of the
exhaust system.
– you have had an accident involving dam-
age to the exhaust system, underbody, or
rear of the vehicle.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN STARTING
AND DRIVING
Starting and driving5-3

NISSAN GREEN PROGRAM
The three-way catalyst is an emission control device
installed in the exhaust system. In the converter,
exhaust gases are burned at high temperatures to
help reduce pollutants.
CAUTION
•The exhaust gas and the exhaust system are
very hot. While the engine is running, keep
people or flammable materials away from the
exhaust pipe.
•Do not stop or park the vehicle over flam-
mable materials such as dry grass, waste pa-
per or rags, as they may burn easily.
•When parking, ensure that people or flam-
mable materials are kept away from the ex-
haust pipe.
TO HELP PREVENT DAMAGE
CAUTION
•Use UNLEADED PETROL ONLY, specifically
the recommended type. For details, see “Ca-
pacities and recommended fuel/lubricants” in
the “9. Technical information” section.
•Do not use leaded petrol. Leaded petrol will
seriously damage three-way catalyst.
Deposits from leaded petrol will seriously re-
duce the three-way catalyst’s ability to help
reduce exhaust pollutants.
•Keep your engine tuned up. Malfunctions in
the ignition, fuel injection, or electrical sys-
tems can cause over-rich fuel flow into the
converter, causing it to overheat.
•Avoid driving with an extremely low fuel level.
Running out of fuel could cause the engine to
misfire, damaging the three-way catalyst.
•Do not keep driving if the engine misfires, or
if noticeable loss of performance or other un-
usual operating conditions are detected. Have
the vehicle inspected promptly by a NISSAN
dealer or qualified workshop.
•Do not race the engine while warming it up.
•Do not push or tow your vehicle to start the
engine.The turbocharger system uses engine oil for lubrica-
tion and cooling of its rotating components. The tur-
bocharger turbine turns at extremely high speeds
and it can reach an extremely high temperature. It is
essential to maintain a flow of clean oil through the
turbocharger system. A sudden interruption to the
oil supply may cause a malfunction in the turbo-
charger.
To ensure prolonged life and performance of the
turbocharger, it is essential to comply with the fol-
lowing maintenance procedure:
CAUTION
•Change the engine oil of the turbo-charged
diesel engine as prescribed. See the sepa-
rately provided Warranty Information & Main-
tenance Booklet for additional information.
•Use only the recommended engine oil. See
“Capacities and recommended fuel/
lubricants” in the “9. Technical information”
section.
•If the engine has been operating at high rpm
for an extended period of time, let it idle for a
few minutes prior to shutdown.
•Do not accelerate the engine to high rpm im-
mediately after starting it.

c. Start the engine with your foot off the ac-
celerator pedal. Release the ignition
switch when the engine starts.
If the engine starts, but fails to run, repeat
the procedure from step a.
CAUTION
•Do not operate the starter for more than 15
seconds at a time. If the engine does not start,
turn the ignition switch to the “OFF” position
and wait 10 seconds (Petrol engine models)
or 20 seconds (Diesel engine models) before
cranking again, otherwise the starter could be
damaged.
•If it becomes necessary to start the engine
with a booster battery and jumper leads, the
instructions and cautions contained in the
“Jump-starting” in the “6. In case of
emergency” section should be carefully fol-
lowed.
7.Warm-up
Allow the engine to idle for at least 30 seconds
after starting. Drive at moderate speed for a short
distance first, especially in cold weather.
WARNING
Do not leave the vehicle unattended while the
engine is warming up.
DRIVING WITH MANUAL
TRANSMISSION
CAUTION
•Do not rest your foot on the clutch pedal while
driving. This may cause clutch damage.
•Stop your vehicle completely before shifting
into the R (Reverse) position.
•When you are shifting from one gear to an-
other, be certain to depress the clutch pedal
all the way to the floor to avoid clashing or
chipping the gears.
•Avoid abrupt starts and acceleration for your
safety.
•When quick acceleration is required for some
reason, shift to a lower gear and accelerate
until the vehicle reaches the maximum speed
in each gear. Do not exceed the speed limit of
any gear. Pay special attention when acceler-
ating or when shifting into a lower gear on
slippery surfaces. Sudden acceleration or
down shifting could cause the wheels to skid
and result in loss of control.
